Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have hired my mom's pretend (but serious pretend) boyfriend Jamie Oliver to come to their Surrey estate to cook them Christmas dinner. Pitt and Oliver have been buddies since the Jennifer Aniston days. The British chef has tried to give him cooking lessons before, but he's "useless in the kitchen." Aw, it feels adorably correct that no matter how domesticated and fatherly Brad Pitt has become, dude could still burn water. As for Angelina, there is no way that woman is going near a stove except maybe to have brutal leonine sex on top of it.

Unsurprisingly, Branj need his help because it is almost impossible for two super-famous people to take their gazillion super-famous kids out to a restaurant and not make national news, so they stay inside the castle often. I will ask my mom what it's like in there on Christmas Eve when she screams "PUKKAAAAAA" and crashes through their kitchen wall like the Kool-Aid man. [Hello! Magazine]

In all the Gaga size hubbub, here is Adele weighing in. Ugh, sorry.

I just stand there and sing. I'm not worried that I'm a ‘plus size' and so much bigger than other artists. No matter what you look like the key is to be happy with yourself.

She adds that female pop stars shouldn't be using their sexuality to sell records, and adds in a (rather judgmental, IMHO) aside:

Adele's theme for the new Bond movie Skyfall will be entitled "Let The Sky Fall." Derp. [Capital FM]

OKAY, so let's talk about how tenuous and fetal this Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart reunion is for a second. Specifically, it's a one-month "trial" reconciliation called by R-Patz, to see if he can actually get over that time a married dude chafed himself on K-Stew through his chinos as they stood on a bridge.

Supposedly he has "requested that they don't talk about Rupert [Sanders] and what happened." It kind of seems to me that not talking about this major relationship issue will eat away at them both like a degrading alien brain-cell in a Stephen King book until Mr. Rochester has to hide them both away in a wall, but who the hell am I.

Like the proverbial honey badger, Kim Kardashian don't care and gives zero craps about Kanye West's 20-minute sex tape, because people in glass houses blah blah blah. Her mother Kris Jenner agrees that it's "no big deal," and the fact that the woman was a Kim K. lookalike apparently had the whole family rolling in the aisles. "They all joked that Kanye has a type!" HILARIOUS. [Radar Online]

Also, also, also, it might actually beKim Kardashian on the tape disguised as a lookalike because the timestamp would reveal that she was cheating on Kris Humphries. [Examiner]
